About my cause

My cause is bobby calves. 'Bobby calves' are among the most vulnerable and abused animals in the Australian farming system. These baby calves are separated from their mothers within 12 hours of birth, so that their mothers' milk can be harvested for human consumption. Every year some 400,000 unwanted dairy calves are trucked to slaughter from just five days old. Your support will enable Animals Australia to continue critical lobbying and consumer awareness campaigns to help create a brighter future for these mistreated animals. Learn more.

I'm raising money to create a kinder future for bobby calves.
I am celebrating 10 years of being vegan!!

After stumbling across another animal protection group’s website and seeing the immense suffering of animals we eat I decided to go vegetarian. Then, after learning more about the cruelty in the egg and dairy industries, I went vegan one year later. I think this was one...of the best things I have ever done, I just wish I had have done it sooner.

While there may be challenges from time to time, being vegan is not really ‘difficult’, especially when you consider how difficult things are for the animals we exploit. And the benefits of veganism are enormous - for the animals, our health and the environment.

Please help me celebrate this 10 year milestone by making a donation to Animals Australia! They are one of the strongest voices for the protection of animals in Australia - they work tirelessly against factory farming, live export and on many other important issues.

I chose to raise funds for bobby calves because I think it is so sad that these gentle and vulnerable animals are slaughtered as a ‘waste product’ just so we can consume their mothers’ milk.

Thank you for making a donation to help make the lives of animals better!! If you would like to do more, it is simple: GO VEGANSee More »
